Chaos on Capitol Hill prompts changes in pharma and biotech
Dow won’t donate to lawmakers who refused to certify presidential votes, others like 3M, Amgen, BIO and PhRMA pause political giving to reassess
In the wake of the attack on the Capitol in Washington, DC on 6 January, Dow has announced it will no longer donate to the campaign of any member of Congress who objected to the certification to the Electoral College and thereby challenged President-elect Joe Biden’s legitimate election as the next US president. Tallies indicated that 147 Republican members of Congress objected to the certified election results.
